This is one KILLER bass. Japan made Yamaha TRB4-II upgraded with Bart 3-Band (active/passive switch). The only issue that people ever had with the TRB-II series was the factory pre-amps being sterile and I just had it replaced with a brand new Bartolini. TBer (and awesome tech) JKDahlman did all the work. The cavity was re-sheilded with copper foil (the shielding paint is still underneath as well) so this baby is dead silent too. Killer tone! The Yam humbuckers and bart pre work wonderfully together. Much better than the Yam pre! As you can see, this pre was installed right!

She's in real good shape with only a few minor dings here and there on the body and a couple minor ones on the back of the neck. $575 gets this one (most TRB's without the Bart upgrade sell for this money!)!!! As you can see, this bass is stunning! Sale (verses trades) strongly prefered!

34" scale?

35" (great for drop or stepped-down tunings)

I'll also toss in a really nice, brand new gig bag with very thick padding.
